how do you reset terminal password on n9
 

i think i accidentally changed it.

when i type rootme, i get

su: can't set groups: operation not permitted

It's pretty hard to accidentally change it... so i do not think you did that. Make sure you are using lower case when writing the password.

Re: how do you reset terminal password on n9
 

yes. ..lower case. though that was a rubble upgrade they made that auto capitolizes the first letters .

not sure what to do. even enjoying it doesn't let me in.

Well.. if that is the case i do not think you have developer-mode activated. It must have not installed. What do you see if you write "dpkg -l | developer-mode" (the -l is a small L). Do you see "ii" infront of it?

Re: how do you reset terminal password on n9
 

i get:

- /bin/sh: developer-mode not found


i have it enabled in the settings/security/developer mode

Re: how do you reset terminal password on n9
 

really strang. i just installed nano from the ovi store and the terminal icon disappeared.


i made sure that the dev mode was enabled...but it is not there.

the only way i can get it to open is to open file box and launch it from there.

but still cannot get root access.


i have this version:

pr1.1
20.2011.40-5_PR_001

yes...that is 40-5....and not 40-4

As long as you have "- /bin/sh: developer-mode not found" then you do not have root. With or without terminal.

Have you set "other sources" under applications in settings?`Somehow developer-mode does not get installed when you select it. Do you have internet connection on when doing so? Have you tried with 3g? As it needs to download.

I Do have the enable non-store installations...also, just reformatted my device all together to start from scratch.

I Cannot enable Dec mode. After tantaping the rifle, I get the warning and three the info that it needs to dl data...then after a few seconds, it just rifles back to off.

I Tried on wifi and 3g to get it on.

I Did install nano again, so terminal is there, but no riot access

Re: how do you reset terminal password on n9
 

This happens if you do not have connection... have you made sure the connection is working? You could atemt to install it manually by downloading packages with your browser...
